    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Have raised a complaint but this is being dealt with by someone only capable of copying and pasting a series of platitudes into a superficial and thoughtless email. No intelligence or attempt to understand and address the issues. Pathetic. Still not fixed.

    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

    Your website for checking status is not loading. Can you verify if there are known issues with broadband in the se3 area. Thanks @virginmedia

  • markrhorney
    Mark (@markrhorney) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    My connection has been crap for months and the one time it’s fine, everyone else is down #virginmedia

    Joana (@JoanaLoGomes) reported from Merton, England

    Hey @virginmedia. Any chance the Broadband issue is getting fixed soon in SW17? I’m working from home tomorrow, so this is a bummer really!

  • Phil_Swallow
    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

    Kwame Gyamfi (@Kwame916) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Virgin Media - you've started with your poor connection bollocks again? It's been a good few month. You were doing well. #VirginMedia #SW11

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    Problems again with @virginmedia in Oxford!! When will you get this sorted #virginbroadband #virginmediadown

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I think you will have to agree this is an unacceptably long time for the repair as it’s already been going on for days?? “There's a TV issue in xxx. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. We hope to fix this by 14 March at 16:00”

  • DogAteMyWookie
    Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, England

    Hey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.

    @virginmedia Well, no one bothered to turn up, called to chase and still not here past the time they told me on the phone they would arrive. Usual excellent service I have come to know from you 🥳

  • educationforum
    Andy Walker (@educationforum) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia Your customers pay enough to expect 24 hour support. Do better.

  • Ivan_Petrov
    Ivan L Petrov 伊凡🇺🇦 (@Ivan_Petrov) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.

  • Keldavey
    hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted, called the number, it says there is a known issue in my area and engineers are working on it. Does this take 5 days to fix? I try the status online and it tells me everything is fine but it isn’t. Is there anyone looking at this. I’ve never had an issue last this long

    @virginmedia your broadband sucks man!!! Can you just come and remove yourselves from my neighbourhood😑😑😑😑

  • debbsno1
    LovelifeLoveLowe (@debbsno1) reported

    @TheGriftReport Virgin media have been ringing me a lot, I dont answer, as I can NEVER understand the call handler, theyre also very impatient and rude. I pay my bill via direct debit on time, everytime, so , unless I've a problem to report I simply dont put myself through it, too stressful.

  • JustMike2K24
    Michael Day (@JustMike2K24) reported

    @virginmedia My WiFi and overall service has been up and down for over 2 weeks now. I’ve done all of the trouble shooting. I’ve checked the service. I done the old switch off and on. I just need to get somebody to visit and do it as I am unable to wfh because of it.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @virginmedia OK, leaving aside the fact it seems pretty poor that I haven't had a reply from the original agent for four days now I'm happy enough to send a repeat of it IF I don't need to faff about going through security yet AGAIN? IF I do-I'll just wait for a reply to the original DMs. OK?

  • SenosLIVE
    Seno (@SenosLIVE) reported

    @virginmedia please get your **** together, 3rd day in a row internet goes down at 9pm with no solution to the problem other than check back in 24hours. I’m paying £40 a month not for this. Soon it’s gonna be time to switch providers

  • edengem
    Eden Gem (@edengem) reported

    @virginmedia Help Please! Just been given incorrect advice from 4xoverseas tech support. Initial issue was an error code & “black listed IP server” that stopped desktop emails from working. Any advice as advice now cancelled iPhone email. TIA

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia @Starlink simples - best utility provider I have ever had and never gone down in the years I have been a customer.

  • JustRusty
    Rusty Spoons (@JustRusty) reported

    @virginmedia How vile. There is no amount outstanding on my account. It has been paid. The response I got from the credit file amendments team was to contact the credit file amendments team. So I'll just go to CISAS. You're even horrible on social media. No wonder your trust pilot is so low.
